Luxury 2,926 Sq Ft Modern Farmhouse Plan with 3 Bedrooms, Home Office, Vaulted Great Room & Expansive Outdoor Living

This distinguished modern farmhouse embodies the enduring character of traditional rural architecture while incorporating the spacious layouts and refined amenities expected in contemporary residential design. Defined by its expansive single-story footprint, generous outdoor living areas, and carefully organized interior spaces, the residence presents a harmonious balance of comfort, elegance, and functionality.

Containing 2,926 square feet of heated living space, the home is designed entirely on one level, offering convenience and accessibility without sacrificing architectural presence. The structure encompasses a total of 4,763 square feet under roof, including covered porches and a side-entry garage. Measuring 92 feet wide and 70 feet 8 inches deep, the residence establishes a commanding yet welcoming presence across a variety of homesites, particularly on larger suburban, rural, or estate properties.

The architectural composition is characterized by multiple roof forms featuring 8:12 and 10:12 pitches, creating a dynamic silhouette rooted in classic farmhouse traditions. Combined with durable 2x6 exterior wall construction and a crawl space foundation, the home is engineered for long-term performance while maintaining the timeless appearance associated with vernacular American farmhouses. Reaching an overall height of 27 feet 10 inches, the design achieves an ideal balance between scale and proportion.

A defining feature of the residence is its exceptional outdoor living environment. The covered front porch, encompassing approximately 466 square feet, establishes a gracious arrival experience and reinforces the farmhouse's welcoming character. To the rear, an expansive 688-square-foot covered porch extends the living environment outdoors, creating an ideal setting for dining, entertaining, and year-round enjoyment of the surrounding landscape. Together, these spaces contribute more than 1,150 square feet of sheltered outdoor living area, reflecting the farmhouse tradition of strong connections between home and nature.

Inside, the home is organized around an open-concept floor plan that promotes both daily functionality and social interaction. A welcoming foyer introduces visitors to the principal living spaces, where a spacious great room serves as the heart of the home. Enhanced by vaulted ceilings and a fireplace, this gathering area creates a dramatic sense of openness while maintaining warmth and intimacy. Large sightlines connect the great room with the kitchen and dining areas, reinforcing the home's cohesive interior arrangement.

The kitchen is designed as both a culinary workspace and social hub. A substantial center island and convenient eating bar provide additional seating and preparation space, while a generously sized walk-in pantry ensures ample storage. The adjacent formal dining room accommodates both everyday meals and special occasions, creating flexibility for a variety of entertaining needs.

A dedicated home office offers a quiet and productive environment for remote work, study, or creative pursuits. This increasingly essential feature enhances the home's adaptability while supporting modern lifestyles.

The private owner's suite is thoughtfully positioned to provide comfort and seclusion. The spacious bedroom is complemented by a luxurious bath featuring dual vanities and a large walk-in closet. Direct laundry access from the master suite further enhances convenience and everyday efficiency. Two additional bedrooms, each served by their own bathroom accommodations, provide comfortable spaces for family members or guests.

Practical support spaces are seamlessly integrated throughout the design. A mud room connects the side-entry two-car garage to the interior, helping maintain organization and cleanliness. The dedicated laundry room, powder room, and multiple storage areas further contribute to the home's functionality.

Combining timeless farmhouse aesthetics with modern planning principles, this residence offers a sophisticated living experience centered on comfort, convenience, and architectural integrity. Its spacious single-level layout, luxurious private accommodations, dedicated workspaces, and expansive covered porches make it an exceptional choice for homeowners seeking both elegance and everyday practicality in a modern farmhouse design.

JoAnne and the entire staff was extremely helpful and patient with us while we decided between 2 homes. This home has outstanding curb appeal and a great layout perfect for us. I work from home so having the home office off the foyer is fantastic. I converted the wet bar into a storage closet for my office. We also extended the laundry room into the porch and created a multipurpose laundry/mud room. I would buy from archival designs again and again.

It took almost a year to pick a plan. Since my husband and I retired a few years ago we wanted this last house had to have everything we wanted and needed. The kitchen is my favorite part of the house. I can see what’s happening in my neighborhood through my kitchen window and watch my husband garden in the back yard. Our children think we made a smart decision when we picked this house for our senior years.

We’ve had an amazing experience with our new home and are excited to be moved in. The customer service we received during our modifications was exceptional. We are loving the open layout of the kitchen and family room. It feels spacious and I’m already planning on hosting holiday dinners at home. We recommend Archival Designs to anyone interested in building the home they’ve always wanted!

We absolutely adore the Kildare Place house plan. Made some modifications to make this home ours! Our house is the talk of the neighborhood. We host big parties every holiday and still get compliments from our friends and family. We searched for months and looked through hundreds of floor plans and this one had almost everything we wanted, and with the help of the great staff at Archival Designs we got exactly what we wanted!

All house plans sold by Archival Designs have been designed to comply with the International Residential Code (IRC) and to the local codes in the area where the designer resides or where the house was built.

 

Do your plans meet building codes in my area?

All house plans are designed to meet or exceed the national building standards required by the International Residential Code (IRC). Due to differences in climate and geography throughout North America, every city, local municipality and county has unique building codes and regulations that must be followed to obtain a building permit. Prior to purchasing a set of house plans, we recommend that you meet with your local building officials in order to determine the building requirements for your area.  It is the responsibility of the purchaser(s) and/or builder to ensure that the structure is constructed to meet the codes of their local area.  

Important Note:

  • Customers building in CA, OR, SC, WA, and NV: Our house plans do not meet Earthquake Seismic/Wind code requirements.
  • Customers building in GA, SC, FL, and NC Coastal Areas: Plans may have to be engineered to meet local Hurricane/Wind codes.
  • Customers building in AL, AZ, CO, CT, DE, FL, ID, LA, KY, MD, MA, MN, MI, NV, NH, NJ, NY, OH, PA, UT, WY, and VA: Plans may have to be engineered by a local licensed professional to meet local building codes. Please call your local building department before placing order.
  • Customers building in NV: NV law permits an owner or builder to build a house from their own plans. Contact your local building department to verify if our stock house plans will be accepted before placing order. 

 

Will the plans be stamped or signed by an architect or engineer?

House plans do not come stamped or signed by an architect or engineer.  Additionally, house plans typically will not include structural engineering notes/calculations. Please check with your local building officials to determine if a stamp is required. If required, the building department will only accept a stamp from a licensed professional in the state where the home will be built.

Depending on your city, county, and state building requirements, house plans may need to be reviewed by a local licensed architect or engineer for structural details and code standards before construction begins. This is particularly true in coastal areas and those facing seismic events, extreme winds, and heavy snow. If you are building in any of these areas, a licensed structural engineer will likely be needed to provide the necessary calculations and additional drawings. We authorize the use of our plans conditioned on your obligation and agreement to strictly comply with all local building codes, ordinances, regulations, and requirements, including permits and inspections at the time of and during construction. We recommend checking with your local building department for the most current requirements.  The purchaser(s) and/or builder are responsible for additional expenses incurred through meeting municipality requirements or other requirements for construction.

 

Will the foundation included in the construction drawings work for my site?

Our foundation plans have been designed for universal conditions and may need to be adjusted to fit your specific site conditions. The foundation should be modified by a local structural engineer to comply with soil testing laboratory findings and local building requirements.

   

Do your plans include electrical, plumbing and mechanical drawings?

Our house plans will include schematic electrical drawings; however, circuiting or wire sizing will not be included.  Your electrical subcontractor will typically provide these drawings. 

HVAC and plumbing drawings are not included. Your mechanical and plumbing subcontractors will determine the best layout for your site.  Local HVAC codes, climatic requirements and commonly used systems vary throughout the country.  The direction of how water flow will enter the home vary from case to case. For this reason, it is impossible to provide universal plans.
